Gold
Although gold is often treated as an investment asset in the world’s financial markets, it is still essentially a currency. The gold on our platform is quoted in US dollars. When the risks in financial markets are too great, traders use gold as an investment vehicle. This can diversify risk in a portfolio or hedge risk. Gold has been valued throughout human history for thousands of years. Interstellar FX offers a gold price-difference contract that enables customers to make sure that the gold is traded, rather than buying gold in kind. The minimum deal for gold is 0.01 in online trading.
Silver
Silver is also used to invest in financial markets, but it can also be used as an industrial raw material in the electricity industry. Like gold, silver is sometimes associated with money markets and stock markets, and can therefore diversify into portfolios or hedges against risks. The silver on our platform is quoted in US dollars. Interstellar FX offers a silver price-difference contract that enables customers to make sure that the silver is traded, rather than buying silver in kind. Silver’s minimum online deal is 0.01.
